Lender Processing Services, Inc. Research Report

On September 3, 2013, Lender Processing Services, Inc. (Lender) issued its Mortgage Monitor report for July 2013. The Company has highlighted in its report that that while loan origination volume had slowed slightly from May 2013 to June 2013, overall activity remained relatively strong. According to Lender's Data & Analytics Senior Vice President, Herb Blecher, prepayment activity (historically a good indicator of mortgage refinances) is still largely driving origination volume, as has been the case for some time now. Blecher stated, "Prepayment speeds have been impacted by the sharp increase in mortgage interest rates we've seen over the last couple months." According to the Company, Mortgage Monitor for July 2013 leveraged residential real estate transaction data from the LPS Home Price Index to examine trends associated with distressed sales and found that for the 12-month period ending in June 2013, distressed sales overall has declined 28.8%YoY to 463,000.
